Thank you for sharing this video what a beautiful tribute they were amazing rest in peace Prince we miss you so much💜🎤🎼🌹💜 rest in peace John Blackwell💜🌹
Love NPG you can feel the LOVE ,RESPECT, DEDICATION THEY ALL had as a TEAM A BROTHERHOOD & SISTERHOOD THEY ARE FAMILY.. PRINCE you left some amazing musical talent professionals thanks for sharing them with us .. PRINCE ONLY PLAYED WITH THE BEST OF THE BEST .. NPG. FAN 4/LIFE 💯💜
Very moving - tears! Powerful and soulful Prince sure had an amazing band and the singer is amazing - great to see Andre on stage and Shelby and that beautiful PRS guitar jam Purple Rain....first time watching NPG haven't been able to until now. Wow I hope they come my way even though i'm crying like hell. Best tribute to our Purple Master - PRN.
Still wishing there wasn't a need for Prince tributes, especially ones with Kirk Johnson sitting behind the drums...wish he would unlock the vault in his mind. Loved seeing Mike S and Sonny T and Shelby and Chance tho.
Feb 5 2019 WoW! That was absolutely amazing. Another once in a lifetime performance which can never be duplicated. Thank you so much for capturing and sharing this experience with us. I'm going to cherish it for a long time. Love Peace Power Great Health and Prosperity 2U.
After 2nd row at last nights celebrationary concert in Sydney, Australia, I, now, found this a very moving set to both, watch and listen. Sydney,AUSTRALIA
Tommy Barbarella, very nice playing on Venus De Milo. RIP John Blackwell, one of the GOAT. IMO, Michael Bland & John Blackwell were his best drummers. Great job on PR vocals Chance. The Reverend Mike Scott is so damn tasty. My preference is to have his rig up above the mix when he takes them solos. Turnt up! If we wanted it to sound like a record we'd listen to the original. It's live sound! I suppose Scotty is not doing sound on this.
While this performance was impeccable, I would rather NPG focus on songs made famous and created by the NPG. I wouldn't go to a New Power Generation concert that has Tony M, Morris Hayes, Sonny T and Tommy Barbarella and want to hear any of the songs they played here: Nothing Compares 2 U, Let's Go Crazy and Purple Rain. If I had to pick 3 songs to hear the NPG perform, it would be Diamonds And Pearls, Gold and Get Wild! And then again, without Michael Bland, those songs wouldn't sound the same. While I love Purple Rain, outside of The Revolution, the song is too sacred for ANYONE ELSE to perform.
THIS IS PURPLE DELIGHT PRINCE IS STILL JAMMING NPG ANY CHANCE OF PLAYING IRELAND,THE ONLY 2 TIMES I SEEN PRINCE LIVE CORK AND DUBLIN,LETS GO CRAZY NPG..........................TEARS OF JOY 4 THIS GIG
I saw both sets of The New Power Generation with Andre Cymone at Bluesfest Byron Bay Australia March 2018.No-one was disappointed I thought the sets were fantastic..I most certainly would pay to see his show Andre also performed his own sets.The last time Prince played in New Zealand,it was a solo show & tickets were impossible to obtain.
SL Carrtel Tommy Barbarella on keys/piano. Morris Hayes on keys/organ. Mike Scott on guitar. Kirk J on drums. Kip Blackshire on vocals. André Cymone on guitar and vocals. Sonny Thompson on bass. All Prince NPG Alumni. All about the best in the business...
André Cymone was never in NPG, but he was an original early 1980s Prince collaborator - apparently wrote most of Do Me Baby for example. Very interesting addition as front man.

I can say that I am an NPG soldier cause I follow him from late 80's throughout the 90's and beyond. Rest in purple Prince 4ever!

Mr. Goldstruc He’s got a lovely voice
Wow! Just saw these guys last night at Dakota Jazz Lounge. The Prince tribute was unreal!
Tommy Barbarella, very nice playing on Venus De Milo. RIP John Blackwell, one of the GOAT. IMO, Michael Bland & John Blackwell were his best drummers. Great job on PR vocals Chance.

Awesome! But missing Mr Prince!
Heel mooi! Zeker het begin! Zo goed als dit was, zo belabberd was het late concert in Bird... Keuzes keuzes keuzes.
Nice New Power Generation 🎶 🎶.
It's very, very good - but I just can't bring myself to see them live, without he one and only Prince.
Awesome!! Sweet Candy @ 20:40 and 21:01 . . . She should have been playing, but I guess they already had enough up on stage already . . . :-)
misie Snow Oh yes! Candy Kiew exactly what was happening on Stage right b4!
The singer is Andre Cymone?
Wish the keyboardist would have played an entire rendition of Conditions of the Heart
Prince tributes, especially ones with Kirk Johnson sitting behind the drums, I'ts what I would never ever like to see
Yea. He's Mr. Secretive.
Sorry, but nothing compares 2 Prince 💜
Prince’s music and his songs are sacret.
Don’t let others ruin it.
awesome

This one was hard to watch.
Can anyone identify the musicians and vocalist. Thanks
